Macbeth


  • Hardin-Simmons Univerity - Van Ellis Theatre 2341 Cedar Street Abilene, TX, 79698 United States (map)

By William Shakespeare.  This timeless tragedy delves into the corrosive effects of unchecked ambition. The play follows the tragic downfall of Macbeth, at first a brave and honorable general. His fate takes a drastic turn when he encounters three witches who prophesy that he will become the king. Seduced by the idea of power, Macbeth, spurred on by his ambitious wife Lady Macbeth, succumbs to a series of murderous deeds to secure the throne. As Macbeth ascends to power, he experiences the psychological toll of guilt, paranoia, and moral decay.  Directed by Dr. Victoria Spangler.  Best suited for ages 12 and up.
